With smooth downstream procurement, normal slaughter by farmers, and the impact of local epidemics, the market is continuously suppressed. The current supply - demand situation is weak. In August, the slaughter of large - scale farms is expected to resume, and there is also a need to slaughter large pigs previously held back by small farmers. Short - term pig prices are not optimistic. The spot price is expected to remain in a bottom - oscillating pattern, and the near - month 09 contract faces strong upward pressure. The far - month 01 contract is greatly affected by policies. It is not recommended to blindly short, but in the case of good hedging profits on the futures market, the impact of hedging funds also needs attention [2]. 粕类Industry - Trump's hope for China to significantly increase the import of US soybeans has improved the export expectation of US soybeans, leading to a sharp rise in US soybean prices. The continuous increase in Brazilian soybean premiums has supported domestic import costs, but the improved expectation of US soybean imports may suppress price increases. Currently, domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories are continuously rising, and short - term supply maintains a high arrival volume and high operating rate, suppressing spot prices. In operation, the support from US soybeans is strengthening, so the downward space for domestic soybean meal on a single - side basis is relatively limited. However, if domestic supply increases, it may affect the trend of the 2601 contract on the futures market. Considering the strength of oils, long positions held previously should be held with caution [7]. Oil Industry No core view summary other than data changes provided. Corn Industry - The current channel inventory is relatively tight, and some traders have a certain willingness to support prices. The number of incoming vehicles remains at a low level. However, affected by weak market sentiment and the pressure of new grain listing in some areas, the spot price is running weakly with stability. On the demand side, deep - processing and feed enterprises mainly have rigid demand, and inventory is continuously consumed, with no obvious boost in consumption and general procurement enthusiasm. In the substitution aspect, wheat is strongly supported by the purchase - protection policy price. The price relationship between corn and wheat is within the substitution range, squeezing the demand for corn. In the short term, the tight remaining grain situation supports prices, but the weak market sentiment remains unchanged, and the futures market maintains a low - level oscillation. In the long term, the cost of new - season corn is decreasing, and the output may increase steadily. The supply pressure is still significant, and the valuation of the futures market may decline. Attention should be paid to the growth of new - season corn [17]. Sugar Industry - ISMA predicts that India's sugar production in the 2025/26 crushing season will be 34.9 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 18%. Affected by strong production signs, the raw sugar price has slightly declined. However, it is worth noting that although Brazil's sugarcane crushing is approaching its peak, the high proportion of sugar production has not led to a year - on - year increase in cumulative sugar production. The full - blown expectations of bumper harvests in India and Thailand require attention to the later weather trends. It is expected that it is difficult for the raw sugar price to break through the previous low in the short term, but considering the increasing production pattern, an overall bearish approach should be taken. With the increase in imports, processed sugar is gradually entering the market, and the price quotes are loosening, putting pressure on prices. Terminal market demand is average, and procurement is mainly on a need - to - use basis, with weak inventory - building willingness. It is expected that Zhengzhou sugar will maintain a bearish trend [22]. Cotton Industry - On the supply side, the spot basis is temporarily firm. There has been a marginal improvement in the industrial downstream this week, but the amplitude is not large. There has been a slight increase in local sample orders at the grey fabric end. After the cotton price stabilizes, the shipment of cotton yarn has also slightly improved. The finished product inventory has stopped accumulating, and the operating rate has temporarily stabilized. There is temporary support for the cotton price, but the overall confidence in the downstream is still insufficient, and the expectations are not strong. As the new cotton listing period is approaching, the expected output of new - season cotton is still increasing steadily, bringing certain pressure on long - term supply. In summary, the domestic cotton price may oscillate within a range in the short term and be under pressure after the new cotton is listed [23]. Egg Industry - Egg prices have dropped to a stage low. Downstream traders and food factories may replenish stocks at low prices, and the increase in egg procurement will support the rise in egg prices. However, the egg - laying hen inventory remains at a high level, the egg supply is sufficient, and the impact of cold - stored eggs may suppress the increase in egg prices. Overall, the trend of egg futures remains bearish, and attention should be paid to the disturbance of low - level funds [26].

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant information provided. Core Views Copper - In the macro - aspect, the path of interest rate cuts in the second half of the year is unclear. Inflation has not slowed down due to tariffs, and employment is still weakening. Powell is taking a wait - and - see attitude. The decision of the September FOMC meeting will depend on two employment and inflation reports. The suspension of Sino - US tariffs is due to expire on August 12, with different statements from China and the US. - Fundamentally, during the traditional off - season, there is a stage of weak supply and demand, and inventories are accumulating. However, after the decline in copper prices, spot trading has improved marginally, and downstream buyers are purchasing at low prices. The tight supply at the mine end and the resilience at the demand end support prices. Copper pricing has returned to macro trading. The US economy is still weakening, capping the upside of copper prices, but the downside is also limited. In the short term, copper prices are likely to fluctuate within a range, with the main contract referring to 78,000 - 79,500 [1]. Aluminum - Recently, as the warehouse receipt volume has gradually recovered, the center of the alumina futures price has moved down, and the spot - futures arbitrage space has narrowed. Traders are expected to be relatively cautious in inquiring and purchasing. Sellers' quotes remain firm, but downstream acceptance of high - priced alumina is average. - Fundamentally, the supply of bauxite in Guinea is expected to tighten due to the rainy - season barge transportation pressure. However, alumina plants' profitability is acceptable, and there is no strong intention to cut production. The recovery of production capacity and new capacity additions will increase spot supply. The market will remain slightly oversupplied, and the future core driver lies in the game between cost support and over - capacity. It is expected that the main contract price of alumina will fluctuate widely in the range of 3,000 - 3,400 this week. - The aluminum price was fluctuating at a high level yesterday. There was a lot of selling in the market, but downstream purchasing willingness was low during the off - season, resulting in a large discount. The macro - environment in China is positive for consumption, and the "anti - involution" sentiment supports the aluminum price. However, the repeated changes in the Fed's interest rate cut expectations and tariff events bring great uncertainty. The domestic electrolytic aluminum production capacity is stable, and the decrease in the proportion of molten aluminum has led to an increase in inventory. On the demand side, the real - estate completion is weak, home - appliance exports are declining, and orders are weakening after the end of the PV installation rush. Only the new - energy vehicle lightweight demand remains resilient. In the short term, the aluminum price is expected to be under pressure at a high level, with the main contract price referring to 20,000 - 21,000 this month [4]. Aluminum Alloy - Yesterday, the aluminum alloy futures price fluctuated with the aluminum price. Most of the market transactions were for spot - futures arbitrageurs to hedge with SHFE aluminum futures, and terminal transactions were sluggish. Social inventories in major consumption areas increased significantly, approaching full capacity in some places. - On the supply side, affected by the off - season, the output of new scrap aluminum is limited. The import of scrap aluminum is restricted due to the price inversion and Thailand's policy. The supply of scrap aluminum is tight, providing some cost support for recycled aluminum. - On the demand side, the traditional off - season has suppressed demand. Orders from the terminal automotive industry are weak. Downstream die - casting enterprises are bearish on the market outlook, maintain a low - inventory rigid - procurement strategy, and have a strong willingness to bargain, resulting in a light trading volume. The weak demand will continue to suppress the upward momentum of prices. It is expected that the futures price will fluctuate widely, with the main contract referring to 19,200 - 20,200 [6]. Zinc - Overseas zinc mines are in an up - cycle of production resumption, and the zinc concentrate treatment charge (TC) has risen to 3,900 yuan/ton. However, the global mine production in May and the domestic mine production growth in July were both lower than expected. - Smelters are highly motivated to resume production, and the smelter operating rate is stronger than the seasonal average. The loose supply at the mine end has gradually spread to the smelting end, and domestic refined zinc production in July exceeded expectations. - The demand side has entered the seasonal off - season, with average terminal consumption. Downstream buyers are reluctant to buy at high prices, and the spot premium has weakened. The operating rates of the three primary processing industries remain at a seasonal low. - The absolute inventory level is low, and LME zinc inventories are still being depleted. Fundamentally, the combination of loose supply and weak demand is insufficient to support a continuous upward movement of zinc prices, but the low inventory provides price support. For zinc prices to continue to rebound, continuous inventory depletion and a continuous expectation of interest rate cuts without an overseas recession are needed. A downward breakthrough requires a stronger - than - expected TC and refined zinc inventory accumulation. In the short term, zinc prices are likely to fluctuate, with the main contract referring to 22,000 - 23,000 [7][8]. Tin - On the supply side, the supply of tin ore remains tight, and smelters' processing fees remain low. In June, domestic tin ore imports remained at a low level. Although the resumption of production in Myanmar is progressing, due to the rainy season, earthquakes, and mine preparations, actual ore output is expected to be postponed until the fourth quarter. - On the demand side, after the end of the PV installation rush, PV tin - bar orders in East China have declined, and the operating rates of some producers have decreased. In South China, the electronics consumption has entered the off - season, and the operating rates of solder enterprises have declined significantly. Considering the impact of future US tariff policies on trade and the weakening influence of domestic consumption - stimulus policies, future demand is expected to be weak. - Overall, the tin price is expected to fluctuate at a high level. Attention should be paid to the import situation of Burmese tin ore. If the supply recovers smoothly, a short - selling strategy is recommended; if the supply recovery is less than expected, the tin price may be supported [12]. Nickel - Yesterday, the nickel futures on the SHFE maintained a relatively strong trend, and the overall sentiment in the commodity market warmed slightly. - In the macro - aspect, the weak US employment and factory order data have increased the market's expectation of the Fed accelerating interest rate cuts. In China, it is the policy window period of the meeting, and seven departments including the central bank have jointly issued guidelines on financial support for new - type industrialization. - On the industrial side, the spot price of nickel rose yesterday, and the premium of Jinchuan nickel decreased slightly. Recently, the price of nickel ore has been stable. Mines in the Philippines are in the shipping stage, and the domestic trade benchmark price of Indonesian nickel ore in August (phase one) is expected to rise. The nickel - iron market is calm, with supply expected to be loose. The mainstream nickel - iron quotation has risen to 940 - 950 yuan/nickel (including tax at the hatch bottom), waiting for transaction confirmation. Domestic iron plants are mostly operating at reduced loads, but the oversupply pressure of nickel - iron still exists, with short - term cost support. - The demand for stainless steel remains weak, and steel mills are cautious in raw - material procurement. Terminal demand is weak. In the new - energy sector, downstream ternary material producers have low acceptance of high - priced nickel sulfate. Overseas inventories remain high, and domestic social and bonded - area inventories have decreased. - Overall, the sentiment and fundamentals have changed little, and the supply is expected to be loose in the medium term, capping the upside of the nickel price. In the short term, the futures is expected to adjust within a range, with the main contract referring to 118,000 - 126,000. Attention should be paid to macro - expectation changes [14]. Stainless Steel - Yesterday, the stainless - steel futures price rose overall. The expectation of the peak season has strengthened support, and spot agents and traders have raised prices, driving up terminal purchasing sentiment and improving market transactions. - In the macro - aspect, the weak US employment and factory order data have increased the market's expectation of the Fed accelerating interest rate cuts. In China, it is the policy window period of the meeting, and seven departments including the central bank have jointly issued guidelines on financial support for new - type industrialization. - The price of nickel ore has been stable. Mines in the Philippines are in the shipping stage, and the domestic trade benchmark price of Indonesian nickel ore in August (phase one) is expected to rise. The nickel - iron price is strong, with the mainstream quotation rising to 940 - 950 yuan/nickel (including tax at the hatch bottom), waiting for transaction confirmation. Iron plants are operating at reduced loads, and steel mills' profit improvement has weakened the pressure on raw - material prices. The chromium - iron price is weak, and the spot price may still decline slightly in the future. - Stainless - steel plants are actively reducing production to cope with insufficient demand, but the reduction is moderate and not sustainable, so the short - term supply pressure in the market is difficult to ease. The reality of weak terminal demand remains unchanged. In the traditional downstream sectors, it is the off - season, and the growth rate of emerging downstream sectors is expected to decline. Purchases are mainly for rigid replenishment, and although traders have more bargaining space, trading volume is still difficult to increase. The reduction of stainless - steel social inventory is slow, and warehouse receipts are stable with a slight increase. - Overall, the sentiment has improved, and cost support has strengthened, but the fundamentals are still constrained by weak spot demand. In the short term, the futures price is likely to fluctuate strongly, with the main contract referring to 13,000 - 13,500. Attention should be paid to policy trends and supply - demand rhythms [16]. Lithium Carbonate - Yesterday, all lithium - carbonate futures contracts hit the daily limit, mainly affected by the news that the Shixiawo mine in Jiangxi confirmed to be shut down over the weekend. The market sentiment continued to ferment, and the main contract LC2511 rose to 81,000. There is still speculation about whether other mines in Jiangxi will be affected, and short - term attention should be paid to the policy guidance on mine production. - Fundamentally, the current supply - demand balance is tight. The smelting end has short - term inventory support, and supply remains relatively sufficient. Last week's production data rebounded again, but the marginal growth rate of supply has slowed down recently. Demand is showing a steady and optimistic trend, gradually entering the peak season. Cell orders are acceptable, and material production - scheduling data is more optimistic than market expectations. However, due to the inventory pressure in the material industry chain, actual demand has not been significantly boosted. - Last week, inventories increased across the board. Upstream smelters continued to reduce inventories, while downstream replenishment increased significantly, and other trading links remained stable with a slight decrease. Overall, after the expectations at the mine end are realized, the upward space of the futures price is more determined by capital sentiment. Driven by continuous sentiment, the futures price is expected to remain strong in the short term, and the main contract may first test the range of 85,000 - 90,000. Recently, attention should be paid to the evolution of market sentiment and the actual adjustment of supply [19].

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings There is no information about the report industry investment ratings in the provided content. 2. Core Views of the Report - **Steel**: Steel prices have strengthened again, with clear support levels for rebar and hot-rolled coils. Social inventory has increased significantly in the past two weeks due to positive arbitrage by futures-spot traders. Steel mills have few overstocked products as inventory has shifted from mills to traders. There are expectations of production restrictions in mid-to-late August. Short-term inventory pressure is not high, but off-season demand has low acceptance of high prices. The main contract is approaching the rollover period, and the price of the October contract may fluctuate at high levels. It is advisable to hold long positions and be cautious about chasing high prices [1]. - **Iron Ore**: The 09 contract of iron ore showed a volatile upward trend. Globally, iron ore shipments and arrivals at 45 ports have decreased. On the demand side, steel mills' profit margins are at a relatively high level, with a slight increase in maintenance volume and a slight decline in molten iron production, which remains at around 240,000 tons per day. Steel exports remain strong, maintaining short-term resilience in molten iron production. Terminal demand shows strong performance during the off-season but weakens month-on-month. In terms of inventory, port inventory has slightly increased, and steel mills' equity ore inventory has increased month-on-month. It is expected that molten iron production in August will remain high, with an average daily output of around 236,000 tons. Steel mills' improving profits support raw materials. There are also new supply-side policy expectations and production restriction expectations for Hebei steel mills before the September 3rd parade. It is recommended to go long on the 2601 contract on dips and conduct an arbitrage strategy of going long on coking coal 01 and short on iron ore 01 [4]. - **Coking Coal and Coke**: The coking coal futures showed a volatile upward trend, with intense price fluctuations recently. Spot auction prices are stable with a slight upward trend, and Mongolian coal prices are stable with an increase.

On the supply side, coal mine production has decreased month-on-month, and the market remains in short supply. Imported coal prices have rebounded this week after falling last week, and downstream users continue to replenish their inventories. On the demand side, coking plant operations are stable, and the high-level molten iron production of blast furnaces has slightly declined, with continuous downstream replenishment demand. It is expected that molten iron production in August will continue to decline slightly. In terms of inventory, coking plant inventory continues to decrease, port inventory has slightly increased, and steel mill inventory has decreased. It is recommended to go long on coking coal 2601 on dips and conduct an arbitrage strategy of coking coal 9 - 1 reverse spread [7]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Ratings - Not provided in the given reports. Core Views Glass and Soda Ash - Soda ash has an obvious oversupply pattern. With no growth expected in overall demand, it's necessary to track policy implementation and production load adjustments. Wait for a new short - selling opportunity. [1] - Glass has seen a weakening of the market sentiment and a significant decline in spot trading. The industry needs capacity clearance to solve the over - supply problem. Hold short positions and be vigilant against macro - induced fluctuations. [1] Industrial Silicon - In August, the supply and demand of industrial silicon both increase, and it is expected to reach a tight balance. The price may fluctuate between 8000 - 9500 yuan/ton. Consider going long when the price drops to 8000 - 8500 yuan/ton. [2] Polysilicon - In August, the supply of polysilicon increases more rapidly than demand, facing inventory accumulation pressure. If there is progress in capacity integration or clearance, it may rise; otherwise, it may fluctuate downward. The price may range from 45,000 - 58,000 yuan/ton. Consider going long at low prices and buying put options to short at high prices. [3] Natural Rubber - In the short term, supply - side benefits are released, and inventory is decreasing. Rubber prices are expected to be strong. Monitor the raw material supply during the peak production season and consider short - selling if raw materials are abundant. [4] Logs - The log market is affected by reduced available supply and cost support. With stable demand and significant inventory reduction, the short - term futures market is expected to be bullish. It is recommended to go long at low prices. [5] Summaries by Related Catalogs Glass and Soda Ash Prices and Spreads - Glass prices in various regions decreased, with South China having the largest decline of 2.33%.

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content was found in the provided reports. 2. Core Views of the Reports 2.1 Pig Industry - The current pig spot price is weak, with smooth downstream procurement and normal slaughterhouse deliveries. Local epidemics continue to suppress the market. The market is currently experiencing weak supply and demand. In August, the slaughter volume of large pig farms is expected to recover, and there is also a need to sell the large pigs previously held back by small farmers. Therefore, the short - term pig price is still not optimistic. The spot price is expected to remain in a bottom - oscillating pattern, and the near - month 09 contract faces strong upward pressure. The far - month 01 contract is greatly affected by policies, and blind short - selling is not recommended. However, when the futures market offers good hedging profits, the impact of hedging funds also needs to be considered [2]. 2.2 Meal Industry - Trump's statement that he hopes China will significantly increase its imports of US soybeans has improved the export outlook for US soybeans, leading to a sharp increase in US soybean prices. The recent continuous increase in Brazilian soybean premiums has supported domestic import costs, but the improved outlook for US soybean imports may suppress price increases. Currently, domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories are continuously rising, and short - term supply remains at a high level, keeping the spot price under pressure. In terms of operations, the strengthening support from US soybeans limits the downward space for domestic soybean meal on a single - side basis. However, if domestic supply increases, it may affect the trend of the 2601 contract on the futures market. Considering the relatively strong performance of oils, investors holding long positions should be cautious [7]. 2.3 Oil Industry No clear overall core view was found in the oil industry report, but price changes and related data for various oils such as soybean oil, palm oil, and rapeseed oil are presented. 2.4 Corn Industry - The current channel inventory of corn is relatively tight, and some traders are willing to support prices. The number of trucks arriving at the market remains low, but the spot price is running weakly due to weak market sentiment and the upcoming new grain harvest in some areas. On the demand side, deep - processing enterprises and feed companies mainly purchase based on rigid demand, with inventory continuously decreasing and no obvious boost in consumption, resulting in general purchasing enthusiasm. In the substitution market, wheat prices are strongly supported by the government's minimum purchase price policy. The price difference between corn and wheat is within the substitution range, squeezing the demand for corn. In summary, the tight supply of remaining grain supports the price, but the weak market sentiment persists, and the futures price remains in a low - level oscillation. In the long term, the cost of new - season corn is expected to decrease, and the output may increase steadily, resulting in supply pressure and a potential decline in the futures price. Attention should be paid to the growth of new - season corn [17]. 2.5 Sugar Industry - ISMA predicts that India's sugar production in the 2025/26 crushing season will reach 34.9 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 18%. The strong production signs have caused the raw sugar price to decline slightly. However, it is worth noting that although Brazil's sugarcane crushing is in full swing and the sugar - making ratio is high, the total sugar production has not increased year - on - year. The expectations of high yields in India and Thailand are high, and attention should be paid to the later weather conditions. It is expected that the raw sugar price will have difficulty falling below the previous low in the short term, but considering the overall production increase pattern, a bearish view should be maintained. The increase in imports and the entry of processed sugar into the market have put pressure on prices. The terminal market demand is average, with most purchases being made as needed, and the willingness to stockpile is low. Therefore, the Zhengzhou sugar futures price is expected to remain bearish [22]. 2.6 Cotton Industry - On the supply side, the spot basis is currently firm. There has been a marginal improvement in the downstream industry this week, but the improvement is not significant. There has been a slight increase in sample orders for grey fabrics in some areas, and the sales of cotton yarn have improved slightly after the cotton price stabilized. The inventory of finished products has stopped accumulating, and the operating rate has temporarily stabilized, providing some support for the cotton price. However, the overall confidence in the downstream industry is still insufficient, and expectations are not high. As the new cotton harvest season approaches, the expected increase in the output of new - season cotton will bring some pressure on the long - term supply. In summary, the domestic cotton price may oscillate within a range in the short term and face pressure after the new cotton is listed [23]. 2.7 Egg Industry - Egg prices have reached a phased low, and downstream traders and food factories may replenish their stocks at low prices, increasing the demand for eggs and supporting price increases. However, the high inventory of laying hens ensures sufficient egg supply, and the impact of cold - stored eggs may suppress the price increase. Overall, the egg futures market remains bearish, and attention should be paid to the potential impact of low - level capital fluctuations [26]. 3.
